Don't use either of these platforms if you value yourself and your safety.

Orbit is open about using AI and doubles down no matter what if you point out how risky using AI for an app like this is.

Indigo on the other hand, made an eager post about the app they're developing, saying that they can look at your data and will very much delete your account if they find out you're an endo or find endo material in your account.

Remember that there are going to be people looking to take advantage of the fact there's very little for systems right now. Do your due diligence and make sure to do extensive research before using any platform claiming to be for systems, even if by a system.

Edit: DO NOT REBLOG THIS TO EXCLUSIONARY COMMUNITIES. ANTI ENDOS YALL ALREADY ON THIN ICE. REBLOG TO YOUR OWN BLOG ONLY OR MAKE YOUR OWN POST.

Okay, so I know I've done a few different reblogs, but I'm going to make my own official post about it now, so I apologize for any repeated statements or information.

Agree with me, or don't agree with me - but before anybody comes at me in my asks, I'd appreciate if you read every word of this post before fighting me on things I've already stated.

Let's take this from the beginning.

This all began with Simply Plural shutting down. The dev claimed they didn't have the energy or time to go through with it any longer, which... sure. I can understand such. But perhaps make it open code or allow someone else to take over? Especially considering how it's one of, if not solidly, the biggest plural resources out there right now. Backlash. Harassment. Uncalled for? Perhaps. However, backlash to the extent that it's happening could easily have been prevented had the dev come into this statement with answers. There were no clear answers being given.

In any case, Simply Plural is being shut down. The community asks: What's Next? What other resources are out there?

The community answers: Ampersand. Octocon.

Both have their drawbacks, but they're the next best things, so naturally, that's what the community has to hold onto.

Ampersand makes an announcement. They're shutting down as well. What... timing. What... coincidence. Their mental health was getting to them as well. Understandable, I suppose...

So the next best, biggest and well-known thing? Octocon. Has a bad background history, but... what else is there really? Besides, they've claimed they've changed. And what's better is they wrote down in their statement that they had no plans on shutting down! The reassurance is there, this surely could be a reliable source at last.

And then today. Suddenly... a turn.

3 strikes, you're out for me.

Mental health is a very important thing, and I will never not stand by that statement. However, when you make a statement about how you can't go on TWO DAYS after giving a solid reassurance that you will not be shutting down like other plural resources?

Disrespectful - put nicely.

I have no more respect for any of these developers since they have shown ZERO respect for their users.

Plural apps/websites like these are ESSENTIAL to the individuals in this community. And all three of the biggest sources out there are just going to say "ah, don't feel like it anymore. Sorry. Sucks for you guys"?

Disrespectful.

Ridiculous.

Temper tantrum.

Hissy fit.

You are taking away ACCESSIBILITY TOOLS. I have seen countless comparisons here that I, too, would like to note. Feel free to take credit for them if you see one that you've made, I don't remember the usernames. I know that Hypnos compared the situation to elevators. Elevators are accessibility tools for those unable to use the stairs to get to high places. Imagine you're taking away all the elevators in the world. Now there's no way for those unable to get up the stairs to access those higher-up places. This tool has been taken away from them, and so has their opportunity to reach certain areas.

Another person compared it to ADHD meds. Though, I could see this being made to any medication as well. Imagine the creation of ADHD meds were just... stopped. "No more medication is going to continue to be made to help with your ADHD because we just... don't have the time or energy to do it anymore. Oh, you want to see the formula we used so you can work off of that and continue it yourself? No, no, that's too risky of a move on our end... Feel free to start over though! You got this. 👍"

Like excuse me? Excuse you? In what world do you think that's okay?

Also, the Ampersand dev claiming that their statement about them shutting down wasn't... what they meant? And that somehow makes us the crazy ones? It was extremely clear in the statement that Ampersand was being discontinued.

So devs? I have a question.

Which is it? Are you shutting down, or are you not shutting down? Make up your minds, and don't make it the problem of the users. Don't put the blame on the users. This was not our doing. It was yours for coming in completely unprepared and making statements that you couldn't even have the decency of sticking to.

One more question.

What else is there to it? What's going on behind closed doors?

Because not one, not two, but all THREE of you shutting down at the same exact time? Very suspicious, very curious. This is not coincidence in the slightest.

I'm done being nice to these three devs. It takes a lot to piss me off, but these devs have managed to get me there the past week.

You want me to feel sorry for you? I don't. You brought all of this onto yourselves by handling the situation how you have this far. Need a break from the harrassment and the backlash? That's more than okay. DO: take a step back, turn your phone off for a while, get some air and take time to recover. DON'T: make it the problem of the users, feed fuel to the fire, and put the blame of your deteriorating mental health on the users whom YOU have disrespected.

I will put this so bluntly: Grow up. Be actual adults. Get mature. Maybe take a step back and take time to regroup - come back when you're actually prepared and ready to make official statements.

Reminder that you can wholeheartedly love your system and sysmates and still have days where you feel tired of being a system. Sometimes being a system makes hard days easier, but sometimes it makes them harder, and that’s okay too.

hi systems [mainly] this is important please listen up

POSTING YOUR TRIGGERS ONLINE FOR THE PUBLIC TO SEE OR FOR FRIENDS YOU DONT KNOW THAT WELL IS DANGEROUS. IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT SORTA TRIGGER IT IS, ITS PUTTING YOURSELF IN DANGER. NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW YOUR TRIGGERS EVEN IF THEYRE POSITIVE.

mainly directed at minors. adults can do wtv i don't care it's your choice you should understand the consequences. CHILDREN do not. doesnr matter how "mature" you are.

also applies to stating hypersexuality, but that's a whole other convo.

endos this applies to you too. I care abt your safety too. you deserve to be safe too. stay safe

it's killing me that systems think they are faking or lying because they haven't had other alters front in a while, headspace has been silent, your communication is down, and overall just "feeling like a singlet"

because number 1, cdds have more symptoms than just alters, number 2 it's a covert disorder, and number 3, you are an alter!

no one experiences the same level of their symptoms for any of their disorders every day.

if my avoidance to food due to arfid is more noticeable some days, why is it different for having alters in osddid?

cdds are covert disorders. they will try and hide your symptoms because it's the whole point of their existence. don't blame yourself for a survival mechanism your brain created to protect you!

and I see so many people forget this, especially hosts, but you're an alter! if someone else doesn't front, that doesn't suddenly make you a singlet because you are still part of a system

you can make mistakes or be wrong, but don't fakeclaim or feed yourself misinformation in order to realise that!

Do any other hosts feel… malleable is I guess the right word?

I feel like I change to fit what other people expect of me a lot, as well as gaining traits/vocal norms/fidgets of characters I like, and I was wondering if any hosts felt impermanent too.

I figured out how to make pluralkit into an app, and here’s the tutorial.

Hey sysblr- I know that the shutdown of simply plural (and octocon, thank god.) has left you all wondering what the hell to do. PLEASE REPOST THIS TO OTHER PLATFORMS TO HELP OTHER SYSTEMS.

Follow along with the video - included is the shortcut link and the images I used as app covers.

Safe to use, easy to use. You need to download apple shortcuts first.

Additionally if you’d like people to be able to see your front like in simply plural, you can share your pluralkit fulmine link. https://pluralkit.xyz/s/SYSTEM-ID

LINK FOR THE SHORTCUT: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/12323/

IF YOU WANT TO ADD A DIFFERENT WEBSITE THATS SIMILAR TO SIMPLY PLURAL -

add the pkstatus website instead of the pluralkit dash. it allows you to add systems as friends and track their front. it also allows you to register switches, but I personally prefer the other shortcut as it doesn’t require wifi to use.

https://myfriends.d6-system.nl/#/manage

whoever is in first front will

be the one proxied when you have pk;ap front on.
